Love TapeWrite. This is how all podcasts should be and can't believe it didn't exist already. Huge fan of both founder and the product.

Just signed up in seconds - easy peasy. Looks really cool. Nice, clean mobile UX. Love Medium format so excited to see the approach for audio.
@borja_tapewrite what are the main types of "authors" / content have you seen coming to the platform initially?
